A crop of hot producers including Afrodisiac Sound System, Fort Knox Five, Yes King, Trio Electrico, Jimpster and DJ Spooky- have remixed a dozen cherished songs from the beloved master. Roots, Rock, Remixed balances that fine line of respect to the inimitable artist Nesta was and using the bass-heavy digital technologies available to producers. Nothing of the gorgeous, crackly analog originals is lost in translation.

Customer Review: This may just burn out my media player…
Sitting in my living room, jamming to this album. I’m worried that my car stereo, or computer, may get fried eventually with all the spinning this has done inside. The only thing that I think is missing, is that more songs weren’t remixed. This album just isn’t as big as it should have been. I read the other reviews on here and agree with most of what they had to say, this is a great album.
Many other remixes of Bob’s stuff, just don’t do him justice, but this album, I believe Bob would be happy with. Most tracks stay very true to the original sounds, while still keeping things new and fresh. Now there are a couple of tracks that stray way far from how they originally sounded, in that they can now be considered, minimal, or progressive house, but those two tracks, they just happen to be my favorites on the album.
This shouldn’t be passed up by those new to Bob, or anyone that’s been a fan.
